 Türkiye is planning to establish local defence production facilities and military training centres in Nigeria as part of efforts to strengthen security cooperation and increase bilateral trade to $5 billion. Turkish Ambassador to Nigeria, Mehmet Poroy, disclosed this on Monday in Abuja, saying the proposed facilities would enable Türkiye to support local military equipment production rather than simply supplying weapons and equipment. He also revealed that 200 Nigerian special forces personnel were undergoing a two-month training programme in Türkiye, with plans underway to establish a similar facility in Nigeria. “We are planning to have some local production unit also in that context, not only selling to Nigeria the tools, equipment, the arms that it needs, but also the possibility of having local production here in Nigeria,” Poroy said.

ALLEGED FBI HACK MAY HAVE EXPOSED SENSITIVE MEDICAL RECORDS OF THOUSANDS OF AGENTS. (PHOTO).


 Alleged FBI hack may have exposed sensitive medical records of thousands of agents

An alleged cyberattack targeting FBI personnel records may have exposed highly sensitive medical information belonging to thousands of special agents, including blood and urine test results.

Hackers reportedly provided journalists with samples of the allegedly stolen material, including medical examinations used to determine whether employees are fit for duty. The group behind the alleged breach, known as ShinyHunters, has not publicly released the full dataset.

The group has claimed to have obtained information connected to FBI employees, including a list of roughly 5,000 alleged FBI officials. The full scope and authenticity of the information remain under investigation.

The FBI has previously warned about ShinyHunters, describing it as a cybercriminal group involved in large-scale data breaches and extortion. The group has been associated with harassment tactics against victims and their families, including threatening messages, phone calls and, in some cases, swatting incidents.

The alleged FBI breach may not be motivated solely by financial gain. ShinyHunters has reportedly sought to challenge statements the FBI has made about the group.

The FBI said it is aware of claims that the FBIJobs.gov portal was compromised and that personally identifiable information belonging to FBI employees may have been affected. Investigators have not yet determined whether the alleged breach originated with the FBI or a third-party provider supporting the website.

The agency said it is investigating the incident and working with third-party providers to reduce potential risks.

FBIJobs.gov has served as the FBI’s primary online application portal for prospective agents and support personnel since 2017.

Investigators are continuing to assess the alleged breach and determine what information, if any, was actually compromised.
